Newnes over Worpel is not looking good

The Worpedo was close to BOG so I think 100 points is his ceiling.

Listening to BigFooty

My number 1 rule next year is to not get sucked into the hype about player 'x'.

I put Grundy in purely because of BigFooty.com talk
If goldy kills it I’ll be pissed!

Had Neale and Crouch all preseason... didn’t go with them. Oliver and Gawn can **** off, too.

Yes where are the 'set and forget' brainiacs now?

I think you'll find them all complaining in the weekly thread

 

[Socrates2]

Libba has to go, he's got no value if he's gonna average 75. Libba to Sheed ,its a no brainer.

 

[blitzer]

I regret not getting either Rockliff or Sheed who I considered strongly but I suppose my consolation is that M.Crouch and Martin performed well (particularly Crouch).

I also had Westhoff for like the entire preseason before trading him out. I really wanted Kelly as well but was just short on cash but I suspect he's going to smash Billings (who I took instead) at F3.

I'll give Libba one more week. He did have 28 touches, would probably normally score more from that. But I'll find a way to get it done before price changes if we have another comparable round. Sheed looks in incredible nick right now.

He's not the same player, plus he's competing with Macrae, the Bont, Dunkley, McKean ,Hunter and others for a midfield spot. Either him or Walsh to upgrade imo

 

[Suma Magic]

A bit of a preemptive regret...

Decided that Sheed is a must. And Libba to Sheed the only way I can swing it.

So downgraded Williams to Ridley before the lockout so I can do Libba to Sheed next week.

Feels so wrong but massive FOMO on Sheed.

 

[5ammy]

Started with The Bont the past 2 seasons and he was frustrating to own so I passed on him this year.... so he decides to post his highest score ever in Round 1 to say up yours!

 

[SHAKESPEARE]

The C on a campaigner ruckman like Gawn.

Watch the ****ing shitface pull 160+ next week

Yep, never again and I putting the C on that campaigner.

VC and that's it.

Macrae and Fyfe from now on.

I have turds like Cripps, Oliver, Neale to bloody bank on

I will never again sacrifice the mids for a stringer fwd/backline.

6 Premo mids

I went with a 6 premo midfield (M.Crouch at M6) but I have spud Oliver (your avi pic) at M3.

He has one more chance or he gets turfed for Cogs, Lloyd or Sheed.

Trade them both out then.

 

[Socrates2]

Trade them both out then.

It was a bad call,they are overpriced.

 

[gcsunsfc]

I'm obviously not going to trade them
Just playing into the hyperbole that is this board.
Wouldn't have minded the extra 150k to use elsewhere though.

You don't seem to understand that everyone else will trade them in at a cheap price, so you've lost $150,000 to $200,000 after round one.

They literally averaged 25-30 more than the next best ruckman, it wasn't exactly a big call. They're also in 50% of teams

You're making it out likes it a BF POD that you got sucked into

Haha mate. You don't need to explain to me how supercoach works.
I do understand that - I'm not going to trade out Gawn and Grundy.
IF they drop 200k in price and others trade them in, well done to them.. well played, doesn't help my cause to spend 4 trades getting them both in and then out.

I'm really not that upset - Likely that they'll end up as the seasons highest scorers which was why I made my own decision to bring them in.

 

[ForeverHardcore]

Biggest regret is not starting Harry Taylor

Playing key back will average 80+ and make 150k

Went d4 collins d5 scrim d6 Clark
Over
D4 Taylor d5 Clark d6 duursma

Thought having duursma on the bench looked stronger but oh well


On the positives for 2020
Rance docherty and doedee all mid pricers? backs will be better next year haha
